500 WORDS, DAY 45: Classifying Drugs & Addictions

Yesterday I continued the topic I started two days ago, that of my ongoing weed addiction, and about weed in general and what I think about it, as well as some other drugs and substances. We’ve gotten out of the way the fact that weed isn’t physically addictive like alcohol or nicotine, but we’ve also … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 45: Classifying Drugs & Addictions

500 WORDS, DAY 35: I Am That I Am

We left off yesterday with the question of whether time is the ultimate reality or the ultimate illusion? We take time for granted precisely because it feels no different than reality itself. What’s the feeling of time? Think about it. Isn’t it just the feeling of life passing by, therefore being the feeling behind every … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 35: I Am That I Am

DAY 25 (1000 WORDS, 3rd attempt)

These days it seems like mental health is being acknowledged and discussed more than ever before. It's good in a way because we are getting more open to sharing our vulnerabilities, and we are becoming more open to understanding other people's struggles. Is this because we are becoming more caring and understanding, or could it … Continue reading DAY 25 (1000 WORDS, 3rd attempt)

1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 79: Placing Motivation in the Right Direction.

Motivation is essential if we wish to succeed at any task, without a doubt.

1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 78: Getting Checked.

I also wrote about how I eventually found … Continue reading 1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 78: Getting Checked.

1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 75: Energy, Instinct and Intuition.

The whole of life is evidently all energy; hence we are all emanations of this energy. We have fair basis to believe that we are not separate from anything, as the whole of matter is energy as well. Energy is effort, a never-ending effort to elevate, the driver of all evolution. Energy is the source … Continue reading 1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 75: Energy, Instinct and Intuition.

1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 74: “The Trouble Is You Think You Have Time.”

Jack Kornfield said that "the trouble is you think you have time.” We all think we have enough time. We know that there are important things which have never been said up to this point, things which probably should have been done a long time ago. We know that we have to set things straight … Continue reading 1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 74: “The Trouble Is You Think You Have Time.”

1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 73: Use Your Talents to Shine A Light.

Life's about sacrifice, you gotta put in work because people's hearts have grown cold as ice. No one is obligated to lend a helping hand, so don't expect anyone to understand. But the trick is to not grow bitter and cold, even as we constantly witness the wicked ways in which life in this world … Continue reading 1,000 WORDS (2nd attempt): DAY 73: Use Your Talents to Shine A Light.
